  • Using Apple Magic Mouse With Windows 7 64 bit and Parallels Desktop 8 questions

    I will be getting an iMac in the coming months and installing Parallels Desktop 8 and Windows 7 64 bit.
    I was wondering if I would have the functions of been able to left click, right click, scroll (preferably vertically but also occasionally horizontally) with the Apple Magic Mouse when I'm running Windows 7 through Parallels Desktop 8?
    I just wondered if anyone has installed Parallels Desktop 8 and Windows 7 and have you been able to do what i mentioned above and also have you come across any other issues, problems whilst using the Apple Magic Mouse on the Windows side?
    If there is any problems/issues with doing the above, is there anything I will need to do to get the above functionality to work?
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm using Parallels 8 Win 7 64 bit, on an iMac.
    - leftclick and rightclick is working
    - i miss the middle button in my cad-software
    The same with the trackpad!
    Sometimes scrolling is a bit too fast, becuase Win 7 isn't made to use with the Magicmouse or trackpad.
    The only thing i miss / doesn't work ist the middle mouse button!
    Thanks very much for the help stz-42 its much appreciated.
    Providing I can left click, right click, scroll, then that's OK for me as I will be spending the vast amount of my time on the Mac side.
    Are you able to scroll both horizontally and vertically when using Parallels 8 Win 7 64 bit on your iMac?

  • HT2845 can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS

    I can't get my apple magic mouse to work on my boot camp,running Windows 7 Ultimate on my early 2011 macbook pro with latest Marveric OS........ It works perfectly on the Apple ,

    Not sure if this will help anyone, but I had trouble installing on 10.8.
    I then found this particular support page:

    Be patient with the download, it takes some time ... When it has downloaded, follow the install instructions. It works well.

  • How can i get my apple  magic mouse to work on windows7

    Can my apple magic mouse work with my hp pavilion g7 notebook windows 7?

    You need the mouse drivers from the Apple Boot Camp support files.
    I don't know if the Apple License agreement allows you to run the software on non-Apple hardware though.

  • How to Setup Apple Magic Mouse in Windows 7?

    Hi,
    I have a MBP that runs "Apple OS X 10.6.3" and "Windows 7 Ultimate".
    I also purchased an "Apple Magic Mouse".
    I have no problem setting up the Apple Magic Mouse on the Mac side, but don't know how to set up the Apple Magic Mouse in the Windows 7.
    So how do I make my Apple Magic Mouse work in the Windows 7?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I clicked "Add wireless devices", but it cannot show apple magic mouse.
    i put my apple magic mouse for a while and let bluetooth search, the apple magic mouse can be used, but still not showing in the panel.
    if i have to wait for 1 or 2 mins for the mbp to recognize my apple magic mouse,(in the windwos 7 of course), then it's too tedious.
    anyway that can solve this problem?

  • Can I use Lion without magic mouse or pad

    I am interested in updating to Lion on a mac mini at work but it doesn't have a magic mouse or pad. Will I be able to use the sliding features with a regular mouse?

    Sorry, but no.
    For the Multi-Touch Gestures you have to have/use a Magic Mouse or Magic Trackpad or a Mac Notebook with Multi-Touch Trackpad.

    Nonetheless, a standard mouse can be used with OSX Lion but without Gestures then.

  • Can you use a Apple USB Superdrive with Windows

    Hello,
    I frequently finding myself wanting to use my Apple USB Superdrive with my work computer but havent had any luck being able to load CDs to play or burn.
    If anybody has a solution or information please advise.

    It should work, as long as the drive is getting sufficient power.  It is possible that your Windows PC is not providing enough power through the USB port.

  • Can I use my apple wireless mouse and keyboard with my Mac Mini and Windows PC?

    Hello, I recently dug up a windows PC computer for side projects, and I was able to get by using my wireless apple keyboard and mouse for my Mac mini, and then using a usb mouse for my PC, I want to eliminate the usb keyboard and mouse and just use the bluetooth keyboard. Both computers are usually on all the time, and the windows PC uses a bluetooth adapter. I can get my keyboard and mouse to work on both, but I have to sync them to whatever system I would like everytime I want to use it. Is there any solution that when I choose the Mac Mini my keyboard and mouse will work for the Mac mini, and when I choose my windows pc, the keyboard will only be used on windows without having to resync?

    To my knowledge, no.

  • Why are my web pages scrolling half way down by themselves while I'm using my apple magic mouse. And no, it's not the mouse, apple replaced it

    Only in Firefox when I'm at a site the page will scroll down about half way and stop at by itself which is annoying when I am filling out a form or looking for something. I use to have a problem when I was scrolling and the page would freeze and I would have to go to the scroll bar and manually move the page up and down to active the scroll on my mouse and yes this is a new mouse replaced by Apple.

    Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
    BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
    Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

  • Apple Magic Mouse from iMac to PC

    Hi there! I'm going to purchase new iMac 2011, but for the first week or two I can't use it for some reason (it's a present and I don't wanna show it). But I got my PC mouse broken so can I use iMac's magic mouse with my PC somehow?

    I don't think it will work, here is what Apple says it's requirements are:
    System Requirements
    Mac computer with Bluetooth wireless technology
    OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0* or OS X v10.6.1 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0
    Existing keyboard and mouse for setup
    Two AA batteries (included)

  • Premiere Pro CC Update has Apple Magic Mouse Timeline Scrolling Backwards

    I've used the Apple Magic Mouse and for thousands of hours on Premiere Pro versions CS5 and CS6 and I just updated to CC.  On the Magic Mouse, I used to press Option and then swipe right on the mouse to zoom in on the timeline and Option + swipe left to zoom out.  Now Option + swipe left zooms in and Option + swipe right zooms out.  It's backwards and it's so annoying.  I've tried searching for a setting to reverse this but no luck.  Anyone else having this issue or found a fix to get the Magic Mouse working the same was as in previous Premiere Pro versions?

    I also use Logic for my music/audio production.   In Logic, if you press Option and swipe right it zooms in, and Option + swipe left to zoom out.   Basically the Premiere Pro CC update got this backwards.

  • HOWTO: Magic Mouse in Windows XP Pro

    This is easiest to do when you have another mouse already working with the system...
    1. Install your bluetooth support and service packs for XP
    2. Go to Bluetooth devices from your control panel or system tray
    3. Connect the Magic Mouse and wait until the machine settles down.
    4. Click Add..
    5. Check my device is set up and ready to be found
    6. Click Next
    7. Click the device from the list - it should appear as the address of the mouse (looks like a Mac address)
    8. Click Next
    9. Don't use a passkey
    10. Wait until the bubble appears saying to click here because a device is requesting your attention (or whatever it says)
    11. Pass key is 0000
    12. Click Next
    13. Click Finish
    14. Go back to Bluetooth devices
    15. Click on the device from the list
    16. Click Properties
    17. Give the device a reasonable name (like Magic Mouse?)
    18. Click Services tab
    19. Check drivers for keyboard, mice, etc (HID)
    20. Click Ok.
    That should be it. This was not the first bluetooth device I added, so you may need additional steps to configure bluetooth to start with, but that it is out of the scope of this guide.
    As you have probably read, the left and right mouse buttons work, but the touch features (such as scrolling) do not.
    I suppose this should work in a VM system on OSX, if you have drivers to pass thru the machine's bluetooth functionality.
    If you have followed this steps and can't get it to work, maybe Windows is too much for you and you should buy a Mac (I haven't tried it on my Air yet, but expect the process to be much easier than this.. but then again, I already love the Air touchpad, why would I spoil it with a mouse?)

    If I boot directly from the BootCamp partition, MagicMouse is NOT recognized and no driver seems to be installed. If I run Win7 with VMWare Fusion from the BootCamp partition, MagicMouse runs just fine.
    I have installed the BootCamp 3.1 update and a driver for the MagicMouse does not seem to have been installed. I would really like to see a standalone Windows Installer for the MagicMouse driver.
    Apple's KB Article: TS3039 does not mention anything about Win7. "When using an Apple Magic Mouse with Microsoft Windows XP or Vista, vertical scrolling and two-finger swiping may not work."

  • Magic mouse in windows

    i have a MacBook Pro 17" and i am looking for a driver so that i can use my Magic Mouse with at least the scrolling. Is there something out there for me to download. I am using Bootcamp and running Windows XP Pro. some help would be great. or if not the magic mouse then just the track pad on the computer itself?
